Rolex Airking Date 1987 Watch

A classic ‘everyday’ wristwatch, the Air-King Ref.5700 was introduced by Rolex in the 1960s. Similar in design to the Ref.5500 Air-King, the 5700 features a date aperture and a slightly larger case. The precision movement is an automatically wound Rolex calibre 1520 with 26 jewels and hack feature; the hack feature allows the seconds hand to be stopped when the crown is pulled out to the hand-setting position, thereby allowing easy synchronisation to a time signal.

This fine example is from 1987 and is original throughout. This is watch only.
